Concerns about neutrality and sourcing in "Shonen Manga's First Black Female Protagonist" section
[edit]I've added an advert tag to this section because it appears to have several issues with Wikipedia's guidelines on neutrality and reliable sourcing:
- Citation #19, which supports the claim that Clock Striker is "one of the most popular non-Japanese manga globally, including Japan," is from Saturday AM's own website, the magazine that publishes Clock Striker. This is promotional material from the publisher itself and doesn't meet Wikipedia's standards for reliable sourcing, especially for such a significant claim about popularity.
- The statement "Many article sources have went on to confirm this as fact" followed by a list of publications doesn't appear to be supported by a citation. If these sources are simply repeating the original claim rather than independently verifying it, this should be reworded to reflect that.
- The section's language reads more like promotional material than encyclopedic content. Phrases like "went especially viral" and the overall framing is inconsistent with (what should be) neutral documentation.
- WhytManga is identified only as "artist" when they are actually the co-founder of Saturday AM (according to their Twitter bio), which seems like relevant context.
I think this section needs significant revision to meet Wikipedia's neutrality standards and reliance on independent, reliable sources. Thoughts from other editors? ~2025-43636-85 (talk) 23:30, 29 December 2025 (UTC)
